I have been amazed by Viola Davis for years. What an amazing actress. As soon as I heard that Viola was going to work on Shonda Rhimes project "How To Get Away With Murder" I knew she would win an Emmy. And when I saw her performance in Fences I knew that she would win the Oscar. And Jeffrey is right. The scene with Viola and Meryl in Doubt was nothing short of spectacular. It was like a Master Class in acting.

She’s not being an advocate just stating what she believes in and isn’t forcing that on anyone else.

It's clearly a bunch of fairytales and it floors me how people do not question all the horrible and cruel things god did in the old testament. I mean, honestly, wake the fuck up! There are thousands of religions out there, has it ever crossed your mind that maybe they're nothing but made up stories?

I actually found this statement horribly tone-deaf. There are plenty of professions out there celebrating what it means to live a life--people who work really hard to celebrate and foster the lives of ordinary people. This stood out to me as another example of actors patting themselves on the back. The rest of the speech was excellent, and I like to believe Ms. Davis intended that comment differently than it came across. But, I'm sorry, to suggest that only artists celebrate what it means to live a life is preposterous.

I will first acknowledge her eloquence, her passion and her mighty spirit. There is no way those things cannot be recognized and respected. However, can a moment be taken for this woman's amazingly toned and beautifully hued physique. She is a goddess... an absolute reflection of divine creation ..from her appearance to her soul. Thank you Viola for simply radiating the power and strength of women...

I agree, Viola should have been nominated for Best Actress, her role was so captivating. The other women in the category were great too, but they didn't deliver the way that Viola did. Viola's next movie will becoming out this year. She will be the starring role as "Harriet Tubman" .. I have a strong feeling that she'll win "Best Actress" for that role.

TheOGKSJ From my perspective, it was fair for Jennifer to be nominated for Supporting Actress. Because Deena was the protagonist and Effie was more of a neutral character.

One of the best speeches. Every time a person of colorful gets the Academy Award, she or he is telling little brown or Hispanic kids, you can achieve anything you want.

Viola is representing Black people, especially African Americans. She is not up there representing people of color, nor little brown or Hispanic kids (the ones who are racist against Blacks like Viola). Stop trying to create a fairy tale to make yourself feel better. Hispanics, for the most part, are racist & colorist.

Just Please stop oversimplyfing, latinoamérica is pretty big and have a lot of countries in it, it is annoying as hell when we are threated as an homogenous group, for example in Brazil they dont even speak spanish, in Aruba they speak papiamento...

Meryl won because of Campaigning by Miramax and Harvey Weinstein. Well that didn't age well. But she won the Oscar mostly because of her work not being recognised since Sophie's Choice. I feel she should have got her third Oscar for The Devil Wears Prada. That would have made Voila won for help. And Michelle Williams for Manchester by the Sea.
